Do you own a house?  As a homeowner, we have rules / laws that we have to follow.  A fun story trending this morning, about strange laws Ontario homeowners didn’t even know about.  Thunder Bay didn’t make the list.  I’m wondering if we have any stranger laws like these:

In Ottawa (Kanata neighbourhood):  it’s illegal to paint your house or garage PURPLE.  Any other colour is acceptable, just not purple.

London:  grass cutting is taken very seriously.  If you leave your grass to grow more than 8 inches,  a city worker will come to your house and cut it for you.  The CITY will send you a bill.

Garage sales in Toronto:  you can’t have more than 2 a year.

In Etobicoke:  you can’t fill your bathtub with more than 3 ½ inches of water.

In Uxbridge (north of Oshawa):  you can’t own more than 2 dogs.  If you want more, you need a property that has more than 10 acres.

In Oshawa:  it’s illegal to climb a tree

And…a law that’s still on the books in Toronto.  You can’t drag a dead horse down Younge Street on Sundays.  Any other day of the week is fine – just not Sundays.

FYI:  some of these laws have been on the books for years.  LOL
